Rigo Cake




This is one of  my favourite cakes.  I used to ask a slice of it in my coffee break at the end of the afternoons, so thank the slice was thin... well, you know how it ends...lots of calories on mu hips . 


The original recipe ask for chocolate fondant on top , but always left behind. This is my version, with whipped cream, marbled with raspberries jam. I  bought  the pionono, but I leave you the recipe. Is  an ancient recipe, perhaps  Moorish, and large used in Spain  for filled rolls, for its lightness and elasticity.

Tiene una pinta deliciosa y ese color esmeralda del fondo con el rojo de la mermelada de frambuesas todo un acierto en la fotografía.
